The work to be done in this work camp will be excavation, weeding, evacuation of raigames and firewood, sanitation, but also to get involved in a local community from the active participation in the Pilgrimage of San Lourenzo that takes place in the fort on August 10. The works of the participants will help a better understanding of the site. The work will pivot around two main axes: the excavation with technical supervision of the area of the castle wall (3rd-2nd centuries BC) and the excavation of existing tombs in the area of the medieval necropolis (9th-12th centuries AD). That the participants understand the importance of their work both at an archaeological level and the importance it has for the local community is a priority in this field of volunteering, therefore, in the activities and in general, in a transversal way, great emphasis will be placed on the archaeological methodology and it will be encouraged the interaction with the local community.
